I would not purchase a property on this part of sector c.

Parts of upper C are fine we had our property surveyed, plus we had discussions with a reputable builder to establish if the property and the plot were okay.

No habitation certificate but I doubt very much if the government are planning to bulldoze all the homes without them so ignore the negative comments around this.

We have also lived on D sector again our property and plot were fine in every way but unfortunately our friends down the road had subsidence and Masa offered them another Villa.  

Take your time to look around before you commit to anything and if in doubt ask on the forum again

Hi Golly G

Please don't get too caught up in the negative stories you may hear or read regarding Camposol.

There are some issues with subsidence but  only on a couple of streets (as far as I know upper c) and a few areas on D which are prone to flooding but given how big Camposol is the majority do not have subsidence issues!. I bought on C1 last year and have no regrets, that being said I paid for a structural survey (as I would do buying any property) This did highlight some building issues however it was down to the seller to agree to the costs of the work to be done. In my case 10,000 euros was held back by the solicitors for the work . Surveyor also employed someone to test the soil - No subsidence!  So please do get a survey which could potentially save you money and importantly give you peace of mind , also ensure you have a decent solicitor. Please also remember only sector A has been adopted by the council so you will find a lot of roads not in a good condition (but probably no worse than the roads in the uk!) 

Best wishes

Hi Golly G, I am going to look at a property in C1 next week.  I note you have now been there 4 years.  Can you please let me know if you are still happy in Camposol and any issues you can make me aware of.  I will definitely be having a survey carried out on the property.
